Summer Camp Directory

Keep your kids moving and their minds sharp this summer with one of these camps. Just because school’s out doesn’t mean your kids have to stop learning. Get them out of the house and into an art class or swimming pool, onto a tennis court or theater stage, or involved in the other fun activities these camps offer. Your kids will come home from camp with fun stories and new friends. Whatever your summer schedule has in store, you’ll be able to find a camp for your kids to enjoy in May, June, July and August, with a time slot that fits your agenda.

For the working parent, there’s no need to worry about what your kids are doing during the summer while you’re at the office. At these safe and affordable camps, you can rest easy knowing they’re in good hands and having a blast developing useful life skills around positive role models.

Summer sunshine, adventure and discovery await your children. Let them form or further develop fun hobbies that can last a lifetime. Enroll your children in one of these camps, and, “You’re the best,” is all you’ll hear until next year when they’ll say, “What are my options this summer?”
